stuckincincy Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 Got a doppler echo test tomorrow to see if it's a cyst/tumor pressing on the artery, or a ballooning of the artery. Anyone ever have this weird one? Surgery go OK?
TigerJ Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 I'm not a doctor, but my brother is. Really he is. In any case, Whether it's a cyst, a tumor or an aneurysm, the good thing is they found it and can hopefully repair or remove it. An aneurysm is a ticking time bomb. It may never burst or leak, but you never know when or if it will. When an aneurysm bursts in a major artery, you can bleed to death in minutes.
